Product FAQs
6 answersWill the KAL26225 fit in an I-Line panelboard?
No, the KAL26225 is a unit-mount, feed-thru circuit breaker designed for traditional switchboards, enclosures, and motor control centers. It does not have the plug-on jaw connections required for Square D I-Line panelboards.
Can the KAL26225 be used in DC electrical systems?
Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this breaker is rated for 250VDC applications with an interrupting capacity of 10kAIC. This makes it suitable for specific industrial DC control circuits or battery backup systems.
How does the adjustable magnetic trip work on the KAL26225?
The thermal-magnetic trip unit features a fixed thermal element for standard overload protection and an adjustable magnetic element. This allows electricians to fine-tune the instantaneous short-circuit trip threshold to coordinate with downstream devices and prevent nuisance tripping.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the KAL26225?
The factory lugs accept either aluminum or copper (Al/Cu) conductors ranging from 4 AWG to 350 kcmil. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation to maintain a secure connection.
Is the Square D KAL26225 still actively manufactured?
The KAL series is a legacy K-Frame molded case circuit breaker. While no longer in active production, it remains widely used in existing installations and is often sourced as a direct drop-in replacement to avoid the need to retrofit older switchboards.
What safety precautions are required before installing this breaker?
Installation must be performed by a qualified electrical professional. Ensure all power to the switchboard or motor control center is completely de-energized, verify the absence of voltage with a properly rated meter, and follow standard lockout/tagout procedures before mounting or wiring.
